Increased Vulnerability to Atrial Fibrillation Is Associated With Increased Susceptibility to Alternans in Old Sheep
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in the elderly, but rare in the young; however, the changes that occur with age that promote AF are not fully understood. Action potential (AP) alternans may be involved in the initiation of AF. Using a translationally relevant model, we investigated wh...
